Judges 19
1 At that time the Israeli people had no king. There was a man from the tribe of Levi who lived in a remote place in the hilly area where the tribe of Ephraim lives. He had previously taken as a wife a woman who was a slave. She was from Bethlehem, in the area where the tribe of Judah lives.
Oo waagaas markii aanay reer binu Israa'iil boqor lahayn, waxaa jiray nin reer Laawi ah oo degganaa dhanka shishe oo dalka buuraha leh oo reer Efrayim, oo kaasuna addoon buu ka guursaday Beytlaxam Yahuudah.
2 But she started to sleep with other men also. Then she left him and returned to her father’s house in Bethlehem. She stayed there for four months.
Markaasay naagtiisii addoonta ahayd ka dhillowday, oo intay isagii ka tagtay ayay aadday gurigii aabbeheed oo ku yiil Beytlaxam Yahuudah, oo halkaasay joogtay intii afar bilood ah.
3 Then her husband took his servant and two donkeys and went to Bethlehem. He went to ask her to come back to live with him again. When he arrived at her father’s house, she invited him to come in. Her father was happy to see him.
Markaasuu ninkeedii kacay oo iyadii doonay, inuu si raxmad leh ula hadlo oo soo celiyo; oo wuxuu u tegey iyadii, isagoo wata midiidinkiisii iyo laba dameer. Markaasay isagii soo gelisay gurigii aabbeheed; oo gabadha aabbeheedna markuu isagii arkay ayuu ku farxay inuu la kulmo.
4 The woman’s father asked him to stay. So he stayed there for three days. During that time he ate and drank and slept there.
Markaasaa soddoggiis oo gabadha aabbeheed ahaa ayaa raajiyey isagii, oo saddex maalmood ayuu la joogay; markaasay wax cuneen oo cabbeen oo halkaasay ku hoydeen.
5 On the fourth day, they all got up early in the morning. The man from the tribe of Levi was preparing to leave, but the woman’s father said to him, “Eat something before you go.”
Oo maalintii afraad aroor hore ayay tooseen, oo wuxuuna u kacay inuu tago. Markaasaa gabadha aabbeheed wuxuu ku yidhi wiilkii uu soddogga u ahaa, Bal nafta ugu raaxee wuxoogaa cunto ah, dabadeedna waad tegaysaaye.
6 So the two men sat down to eat and drink together. Then the woman’s father said to him, “Please stay another night. Relax/Rest and have a joyful time.”
Sidaas daraaddeed way fadhiisteen, oo labadoodiiba wax bay wada cuneen oo cabbeen, markaasaa gabadha aabbeheed wuxuu ninkii ku yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye, raalli ahow, caawa oo dhanna iska joog, oo qalbigaaguna ha faraxsanaado.
7 The man from the tribe of Levi wanted to leave, but the woman’s father requested him to stay one more night. So he stayed again that night.
Markaasuu ninkii u kacay inuu tago; laakiinse soddoggiis baa ku sii adkeeyey, oo halkaasuu ku hoyday haddana.
8 On the fifth day, the man got up early and prepared to leave. But the woman’s father said to him again, “Have something to eat. Wait until this afternoon, [and then leave].” So the two men ate together.
Oo haddana maalintii shanaad ayuu aroor hore u kacay inuu tago; markaasaa gabadha aabbeheed ku yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye iska raaxayso, oo iska joog ilaa gelinka dambe, oo labadoodiiba wax bay wada cuneen.
9 In the afternoon, when the man from the tribe of Levi and his slave wife and his servant got up to leave, the woman’s father said, “It will soon be dark. The day is almost over. Stay here tonight and have a good/joyful time. Tomorrow morning you can get up early and leave for your home.”
Oo markii ninkii u kacay inuu tago, isagii iyo naagtiisii addoonta ahayd, iyo midiidinkiisiiba, ayaa soddoggiis oo ahaa gabadha aabbeheed ku yidhi, Bal eeg haatan qorraxdu waa sii dhacaysaaye, haddaba waan ku baryayaaye, bal caawa oo dhanna iska joog; bal eeg haatan waa gabbaldhac, de halkan isaga hoyo, in qalbigaagu iska faraxsanaado; oo haddana berri aroorta hore iska tag oo gurigaagii aad.
10 But the man from the tribe of Levi did not want to stay for another night. He put saddles on his two donkeys, and started to go with his slave wife [and his servant] toward Jebus [city], which is [now named] Jerusalem.
Laakiinse ninkii ma doonaynin inuu habeenkaas joogo, wuuse kacay oo tegey, oo wuxuu yimid meel ku toosan Yebuus, (taas oo ah Yeruusaalem); oo wuxuu watay laba dameer oo kooraysan, oo naagtiisii addoonta ahaydna way la socotay.
11 Late in the afternoon, they came near to Jebus. The servant said to his master, “We should stop in this city where the Jebus people-group live, and stay here tonight.”
Oo markay Yebuus ku soo dhowaadeenna maalintii horay u badatay; markaasaa midiidinkii wuxuu sayidkiisii ku yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye, kaalay oo aynu ku leexanno magaaladan reer Yebuus oo aynu u hoyanno.
12 But his master said, “No, it would not be good for us to stay here where foreign people live. There are no Israeli people here. We will go on to Gibeah [city].”
Kolkaasaa sayidkiisii ku yidhi, Dad shisheeye ah oo aan reer binu Israa'iil ahayn magaaladiis ku leexan mayno; laakiinse waxaynu u gudbaynaa xagga Gibecaah.
13 He said to his servant, “Let’s go. It is not far to Gibeah. We can go there, or we can go a bit further to Ramah. We can stay in one of those two cities tonight.”
Oo wuxuu midiidinkiisii ku yidhi, Kaalay oo aynu ku dhowaanno meelahan middood; oo waxaynu u hoyanaynaa Gibecaah, ama Raamaah.
14 So they continued walking. When they came near Gibeah, where people from the tribe of Benjamin live, the sun was setting.
Kolkaasay iska sii socdeen oo jidkoodii qaadeen; oo waxaa qorraxdu ugu dhacday iyagoo ag jooga Gibecaah oo ay reer Benyaamiin lahaayeen.
15 They stopped to stay there that night. They went to the public square of that city and sat down. But no one [who passed by] invited them to stay in their house for that night.
Markaasay halkaas ku leexdeen inay u hoydaan Gibecaah. Kolkaasuu galay, oo wuxuu fadhiistay jidkii magaalada; waayo, ninna gurigiisii ma gelin inay u hoydaan.
16 Finally, in the evening, an old man came by. He had been working in the fields. He was from the hilly area of the tribe of Ephraim, but at that time he was living in Gibeah.
Oo fiidkii oday baa shuqulkiisii beerta ka yimid. Haddaba ninku wuxuu ahaa reer Efrayimkii dalka buuraha leh degganaa, oo Gibecaahna qariib buu ku ahaa; laakiinse dadkii meesha degganaa waxay ahaayeen reer Benyaamiin.
17 He realized that the man from the tribe of Levi was only traveling and did not have a home in that city. So he asked the man, “Where have you come from? And where are you going?”
Markaasuu indhihiisii kor u qaaday, oo wuxuu jidkii magaalada ku arkay ninkii socotada ahaa. Markaasaa odaygii yidhi, Xaggee baad u socotaa? Oo xaggee baad ka timid?
18 He replied, “We are traveling from Bethlehem to my home in the hilly area where people of the tribe of Ephraim live. I went from there to Bethlehem, but now we are going to [Shiloh] where Yahweh’s Sacred tent (OR, my house) is. No one here has invited us to stay in their house tonight.
Oo isna wuxuu ku yidhi, Waxaannu ka gudbaynaa Beytlaxam Yahuudah; oo dhanka shishe oo dalka buuraha leh oo reer Efrayim ayaannu tegaynaa. Anigu xaggaas baan ka imid, oo waxaan tegey Beytlaxam Yahuudah; oo haatan waxaan u socdaa guriga Rabbiga, oo nin gurigiisa i geliyeyna ma jiro.
19 We have straw and food for our donkeys, and bread and wine for me and the young woman and my servant. We do not need anything else.”
Weliba dameerahayaga waa loo hayaa caws iyo cuntoba; oo kibis iyo khamrina waa u diyaar aniga iyo gabadhaada addoonta ah, iyo weliba ninka dhallinyarada ah ee nala socda annagoo addoommadaada ah, haddaba wax loo baahan yahay ma jiraan.
20 The old man said, “I wish that things will go well for you, but I would like to provide what you need. Do not stay here in the square tonight.”
Oo markaasaa odaygii yidhi, Nabadu ha kula jirto; habase yeeshee waxaad u baahan tahay oo dhammu ha i saarnaadeen; laakiin jidka ha u hoyan.
21 Then the old man took them to his house. He gave food to the donkeys. He [gave water to the man and the woman and the servant to] wash their feet. And he gave them something to eat and drink.
Markaasuu gurigiisii geliyey, oo dameerihii cuntuu siiyey; oo iyana intay cago maydheen ayay wax cuneen oo cabbeen.
22 While they were having a good/joyful time together, some wicked men from that city surrounded the house and started to bang on the door. They shouted to the old man, “Bring out to us the man who has come to your house. We want to have sex with him.”
Oo intay farxayeen waxaa yimid raggii magaalada oo niman xunxun ah, oo intay guriga hareereeyeen ayay albaabkii garaaceen, markaasay la hadleen odaygii guriga lahaa, oo ku yidhaahdeen, Noo soo bixi ninkii gurigaaga soo galay, aannu u tagnee.
23 The old man went outside and said to them, “Friends, I will not do that. That would be a very evil thing. This man is a guest in my house. You should not do such a terrible/disgraceful/shameful thing!
Markaasaa ninkii guriga lahaa dibadda ugu baxay oo ku yidhi, Maya, walaalahayow, waan idin baryayaaye, ha samaynina wax sidaas u shar ah, maxaa yeelay, ninkanu gurigayguu galay ee ha ku samaynina xumaantan.
24 Look, my daughter is here. She is [still] a virgin. And this man’s slave wife is here. I will bring them out to you now. You may do to them whatever you wish, but do not do such a terrible/disgraceful/shameful thing to this young man!”
Bal eega, waxaa jooga gabadhaydii oo bikrad ah iyo naagtiisii addoonta ahayd; haddaba iyagaan idiin soo bixinayaaye, iyaga kufsada oo sidaad doonaysaan ka yeela; laakiinse ninkan ha ku samaynina xumaan caynkan ah.
25 But the men did not pay attention to what he said. So the man from the tribe of Levi took his slave wife and sent her to them, outside the house. They raped [EUP] her and abused her all night. Then at dawn, they allowed her to go.
Laakiinse raggii ma ay doonaynin inay dhegaystaan, sidaas daraaddeed ninkii wuxuu qabtay naagtiisii addoonta ahayd, dibadduuna ugu soo saaray; kolkaasay iyadii kufsadeen, oo si xun bay u galeen habeenkii oo dhan ilaa subaxdii; oo markii waagu baryayay ayay iska sii daayeen.
26 She returned to the old man’s house, where her husband was staying, but she fell down at the doorway and lay there all night.
Markaasaa naagtii timid markii waagu soo kaahay, oo waxay ku dhacday albaabkii ninkii gurigiisa oo uu sayidkeedii joogay, ilaa ay iftiin noqotay.
27 In the morning, when the man from the tribe of Levi got up, he went outside of the house to continue his journey. He saw his slave wife lying there at the doorway of the house. Her hands were on the doorsill.
Markaasaa sayidkeedii kacay aroortii, oo albaabbadii guriga furay, oo inuu tago ayuu dibadda ugu soo baxay; oo bal eeg, naagtiisii addoonta ahayd waxay ku dhacday guriga iriddiisa, oo gacmaheeduna waxay saarnaayeen marinka.
28 He said to her, “Get up! Let’s go!” But she did not answer, [because she had died]. He put her body on the donkey and traveled to his home.
Markaasuu iyadii ku yidhi, Naa bal kac, oo ina keen aan tagnee; laakiinse cidna uma ay jawaabin; markaasuu dameerkiisii saaray, oo meeshiisii u kacay.
29 When he arrived home, he took a knife and cut the body of the slave woman into twelve pieces. Then he sent one piece to each area of Israel, [along with a message telling what had happened].
Oo markuu gurigiisii galay ayuu mindi qaaday, oo intuu naagtiisii addoonta ahayd qabtay ayuu xubin xubin u kala gooyay, oo wuxuu ka dhigay laba iyo toban cad, oo wuxuu u diray xuduudka reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan inta ka dhex leh.
30 Everyone who saw a piece of the body and the message said, “Nothing like this has ever happened before. Not since our ancestors left Egypt [have we heard of such a terrible thing]. We need to think carefully about it. Someone should decide what we should do.”
Oo kulli wax alla wixii arkayba waxay yidhaahdeen, Maalintii ay dalka Masar ka soo baxeen ilaa maantadan la joogo reer binu Israa'iil laguma samayn, lagumana arag, shuqul caynkan ah; haddaba bal ka fiirsada, oo ka tashada, oo ka hadla.
